Non-Professional Behavior
By Tessa Dean January 2021
Laurel was miffed that her coworker, Janet, got the promotion to head newscaster instead of her. She spoke loudly to everyone about how she was better than Janet and deserved that promotion.
People were getting tired of the constant tirades. Janet was well-liked, and Laurel was just unpleasant. Someone finally thought of a way to shut her up for a while, at least.
Everyone was hanging around, watching as Janet entered the locker room to change for her stint on camera. There was a scream, and then the aroma preceded Laurel and the small skunk out of the locker room.

I expect the choice of a skunk has more than a passing relevance. 🙂

I hope the skunk is okay! LOL. Also that Janet doesn’t get blamed for this. But I am sure she won’t.

The skunk is fine and nothing to point a finger at on Janet’s end. 🙂
